Hi,

I've pushed the fix to collab-maint but I don't have upload rights yet,
would you mind uploading it?

For the record, the post 1.2 master branch of babeltrace is
incompatible with lttngtop and was supposed to be the next release.
However, as the release date kept sliding, it was decided to apply some
patches on the 1.2 branch and release it as 1.3 and I forgot to update
this package.

By the way, I'm looking for a second advocate for my DM application,
I've been co-maintaining the lttng related packages with Jon
Bernard for more than a year now but haven't worked with any other DD
yet.

Thanks,

Michael
